I received a beautiful Van Gogh themed card with an extra Van Gigi postcard enclosed from u/rare_cranberry_7861. Y’all, the envelope was hand crafted! AH-Mazing!

I got 4 wonderful cards on the same day from u/SshellsBbells (x4) — a fairy 🧚‍♂️ card with such beautiful fairies 🧚‍♀️ on a sustainably printed card, and 3 beautiful different whale cards. And yes, I DEFINITELY have gone whale watching, and would love to do it again. Probably when I hit the lottery.

u/GatsbyGalaktoboureko sent a wonderful sea turtle card (yet another of my FAVES!) with some sage and not so sage advice! I just bought juvenile sea turtle cards…I’ll have to remember to send you one!

Thank you ALL!

Some of you will remember, last spring I helped to clear the belongings of a woman in our Unitarian Fellowship after she passed at 105 years of age. Among her things, there were hundreds of postcards from all sorts of places she visited. I saved them so they could be sent out in her memory.

> Mae Woods Bell, age 105, of Rocky Mount, North Carolina left the earth on Tuesday, Sept 19, 2023. Mae was born in the UK, lived in Canada, New Mexico, and California before settling in Rocky Mount in 1951. Mae lived a full and consequential life. She was the founding and longtime Director of the Rocky Mount Children’s Museum, a founding member of the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Rocky Mount, a Twin County Hall of Fame inductee (2010), recipient of the Order of the Long Leaf Pine (2017), and many more accolades. She was a poet, a reader, a maker, a teacher, an explorer, ever curious, and an unflagging servant to her community. She leaves behind a legion of friends who are grateful for having been a part of her extraordinary life. https://tchof.org/mae-woods-bell/

If you’d like a postcard from Mae’s vast collection, please let me know by replying below. Many of you I have addresses for, so if you are familiar to me, I’ll get one out. If you’re newer to me, please shoot me a DM with your info. And if I’ve done gone and lost your address, I’ll message you! 😊

My sister loved Gumdrop cookies that my gram made. I have found a hundred recipes…but they all have spicy gumdrops and coconut 🥥 in them. Gram’s had fruit gumdrops (I know I can just switch those out easily) but NO coconut. Does anyone have a gumdrop cookie recipe with NO coconut?
